What was the name of the act which replaced the Stamp Act of 1765?

That would have been the Declatory Act in 1766, one of a series of acts known as the "Townshend Acts" . The Stamp Act was contested by the Colonies because America wasn't represented in British Parliament. Parliament repealed the act and shortly thereafter passed the Declatory Act, which stated that Parliament had the right to pass whatever laws it saw fit regarding the Colonies. Naturally, the colonists weren't pleased with this new act. The Declatory Act cleared the way for several more acts by Parliament which involved the Colonies. These infuriated the colonists further and eventually led to the Revolutionary War.
